What age range are they ? Nothing gets kids into anything more than fun/coolness/excitement/thrills.
Bike parking, Training, 'safer' routes, basic maintenance. All sounds pretty dull.
How about getting them excited about something first before telling them how best to clean it. Perhaps a screening of the MASH SF dvd might encourage death on the roads, but I am sure you could find a good compromise between full on thrill seeking and (what is essentially) a chore.
